<p></p><p>Yesterday's deadline for signing 2009 major junior draftees came and went with no contract announcement for Owen Sound goaltender <a href="/michael-zador" title="Michael Zador" class="glossify_term">Michael Zador</a> by Tampa Bay. The Tampa Tribune briefly had a report up stating the Lightning informed Zador they would not be signing him. </p>
<p>Zador was chosen in the fifth round of the 2009 draft, 148th overall. At the time he was coming off an impressive showing for Canada at the U-18 world championships and had the size (6-2) the team was looking for in a netminder. In fact, Lightning general manager Brian Lawton traded a 2010 fifth round pick to Nashville to move up to get Zador, a former first rounder in the OHL draft. Zador was property of OHL Oshawa at the time, having just been added from London in the John Tavares deal.</p>

<p>OHL champion Owen Sound was eliminated from the Memorial Cup tonight after losing a tiebreaker game vs. WHL champion Kootenay, 7-3. The Attack beat the Ice 5-0 in their first game of the tournament, but with stars Joey Hishon (Avalanche) and Garret Wilson (Panthers) both out with concussions, they didn&acirc;&euro;&trade;t have a lot to offer. They certainly tried, holding a 2-0 lead after the first period, but Kootenay exploded for three goals in the second period and four in the third to advance to the semifinals vs. tournament host Mississauga. </p>
<p>This marked the final game of the season for Lightning prospects Geoffrey Schemitsch and Michael Zador. After missing several weeks at the end of the regular season due to a broken arm, Schemitsch was finding his groove late in the playoffs. He is all but set to return to Owen Sound next season. Zador, who didn&acirc;&euro;&trade;t dress again Thursday, likely played his last game as a Lightning prospect. The 2009 draft choice must be signed by June 1 and all indications are he&acirc;&euro;&trade;ll be allowed to re-enter the draft. Zador has great size and superb raw skills, and was drafted in front of <a href="/jaroslav-janus" title="Jaroslav Janus" class="glossify_term">Jaroslav Janus</a> by the Bolts, but he just struggles to stop the puck consistently. The signing of NCAA free agent <a href="/pat-nagle" title="Pat Nagle" class="glossify_term">Pat Nagle</a> by the Lightning earlier this spring probably sealed Zador&acirc;&euro;&trade;s fate with the Bolts.</p>
<p>Speaking of deadlines, we learned from the Lightning today that overager <a href="/teigan-zahn" title="Teigan Zahn" class="glossify_term">Teigan Zahn</a> of Saskatoon does not have to be signed by June 1 to retain his rights. Zahn, like all of the 2010 draftees, must be given a &quot;bona fide offer&quot; to maintain his rights for another year, but he is not in danger of being lost. The rugged character defenseman is out of junior eligibility so he could be signed by the Lightning's AHL affiliate to a one year contract. </p>
<p>Today the Norfolk Admirals announced the signing of <a href="/adam-janosik" title="Adam Janosik" class="glossify_term">Adam Janosik</a>'s teammate, <a href="/philip-michael-devos" title="Philip-Michael Devos" class="glossify_term">Philip-Michael Devos</a> of Gatineau, to a two-year AHL contract. Devos was the Q's leading scorer this year with 47 goals and 114 points in 68 games.</p>
<p>Schemitsch and Zador were the last two Lightning prospects playing this season, so the 2010-2011 prospect season has come to a close. Thank you for your faithful readership and keep up with us for Lightning analysis and pre-draft coverage.</p>

<p>Mississauga won Game 8 vs. Owen Sound this post season and as a result earned a trip to the Memorial Cup semifinals. The Attack, who beat the Majors in seven games to win the OHL championship a week ago, now must win a tie-breaker game with Kootenay for the right to play the Majors again. St. John has a bye to the finals. In Wednesday&acirc;&euro;&trade;s game, Lightning prospect Geoffrey Schemitsch had his two game point streak snapped. He had his head driven into the boards on a hit that was originally penalized, then rescinded after the refs deemed it legal. Michael Zador took a seat in the bleachers rather than on the bench as recent Rangers signee Scott Stajcer, who played the majority of the playoffs for the Attack, sat backup to 2011 prospect Jordan Binnington (25/27). Owen Sound and Kootenay play Thursday night. The Attack won the first meeting between the clubs at the Memorial Cup, 5-0.</p>

<p>Owen Sound was four minutes away from going 2-0 in the 2011 MasterCard Memorial Cup when St. John&acirc;&euro;&trade;s Tomas Jurco (2011) scored to send the game to overtime. In the extra session likely top-5 pick Jonathan Huberdeau scored for the Sea Dogs to give them the victory. St. John moves to 2-0 in the tournament, Owen Sound is 1-1. The Attack will play tournament host Mississauga (1-1) next. Kootenay is 0-2. Lightning prospect Geoffrey Schemitsch notched an assist for the second straight tournament game. Michael Zador was backup to Jordan Binnington, who made 41 stops for the Attack.</p>

<p>The WHL champion Kootenay Ice had stormed through high seeds in the WHL like Saskatoon, Medicine Hat, and Portland, but were handled rather easily by OHL champion Owen Sound and goaltender Jordan Binnington (2011). Binnington is ranked No.3 among North American goalies heading into next month&acirc;&euro;&trade;s draft, but this shutout certainly could help him jump a few spots in the draft. With the Lightning expected to take a goaltender at some time in the draft, he could be a possibility with their second rounder. Lightning prospect Geoffrey Schemitsch, who started on the third pair, had a helper for the Attack. Michael Zador watched from the bench as backup. The Attack play St. John next on Monday night on NHL Network.</p>

<p>With just under a minute to go in regulation it looked like Lightning prospect Adam Janosik&acirc;&euro;&trade;s fifth goal of the playoffs, scored with just under five minutes to play, would be the game winner in Game 6 and send the QMJHL finals series to seven games, but likely 2011 top-five pick Jonathan Huberdeau scored for St. John with 23 seconds left to send the game to overtime. In the extra session winger Alexandre Beauregard (undrafted) scored his first of the playoffs to give the Sea Dogs the President&acirc;&euro;&trade;s Trophy and a trip to the Memorial Cup in Mississauga. </p>
<p>Janosik&acirc;&euro;&trade;s season comes to an end with the loss. He finished 11th in scoring among defensemen in the playoffs, and tied for second in goals among rearguards. He didn&acirc;&euro;&trade;t match last year&acirc;&euro;&trade;s point total in the regular season, but set a new career high for playoff points with nine and tied last year&acirc;&euro;&trade;s postseason total for goals at five. The catch is he played in only 10 playoff games last year. All indications are Janosik will return to the Q for another year as he&acirc;&euro;&trade;s not eligible to play in the AHL or ECHL for another year. He won&acirc;&euro;&trade;t turn 20 until September 2012. </p>

<p>Rookie Jarrod Maidens scored at 3:27 of overtime in Game 7 to give the Attack the OHL championship. Goals don&acirc;&euro;&trade;t get any bigger than that. Lightning prospect Geoffrey Schemitsch was on the ice for Owen Sound with the championship winning goal was scored. He had left the game early in the third period due to an apparent injury, but was back on the ice shortly after and nearly created an earlier game winning goal late in the third period by pinching in from his point position and centering the puck into a crowd. The puck got caught in Avalanche first rounder Joey Hishon&acirc;&euro;&trade;s feet and he was unable to slide it into the open side of the net. Michael Zador sat backup to Jordan Binnington (2011) for Owen Sound, who will enter the Memorial Cup tournament as OHL champions. The Attack will play WHL champion Kootenay on May 21 in their tournament opener. Mississauga will play St. John from the QMJHL the night before to begin the tournament. (OHL photo)</p>

<p>Lightning prospect Geoffrey Schemitsch scored what turned out to be the game winner on a screened shot from the point on the power play early in the third period and the Attack held off the top-seeded Majors to win 3-2 and tie their OHL Finals series at three games each. It was the first career playoff goal for Schemitsch, who had one goal in the regular season. Michael Zador sat backup to Jordan Binnington in Game 6. Zador had started the last three games, but was pulled in Game 5 after allowing two goals on six shots. Scott Stajcer, who has been the Attack's starter for most of the playoffs, replaced Zador in Game 5, but was in the bleachers for Game 6. Binnington hadn't started a game since March, but was second star Thursday night. Game 7 will be in Mississauga Sunday afternoon. (OHL photo)</p>

<p>Starting his second straight game for Owen Sound, Lightning prospect Michael Zador (pictured) stopped 41 of 42 shots in 76 minutes of play to help the Attack to a Game 4 win and even their championship series with Mississauga at two games apiece. Zador stopped all nine shots he faced in overtime. The game was scoreless until just under five minutes left in the third when Hurricanes prospect Justin Shugg scored to give Owen Sound a 1-0 lead. The Majors struck back on the power play less than a minute later to tie the game. Attack rookie Cameron Brace, from <a href="/steven-stamkos" title="Steven Stamkos" class="glossify_term">Steven Stamkos</a>' home town of Markham, scored his second goal of the playoffs with four minutes left in the first extra session to give the home side a win. Game 5 will be in Mississauga Tuesday.</p>

<p>Lightning prospect Michael Zador, who had only dressed as backup once in the Attack&acirc;&euro;&trade;s last several games, was the surprise starter for Owen Sound Friday night in a must-win situation. Though he allowed five goals, Zador did pick up the win when the Attack&acirc;&euro;&trade;s Matt Petgrave scored on the first shot of overtime. Owen Sound had a 5-3 lead entering the third period before being outshot 17-7 and outscored 2-0 to send the game to an extra period. Geoffrey Schemitsch was scoreless for the third straight game, but was plus-1 for the victors. Game 4 is Sunday in Owen Sound with Zador the likely starter - though one never knows with Owen Sound. Before Friday, he hadn&acirc;&euro;&trade;t started a game since Game 1 of their second round series with Plymouth. Scott Stajcer, who had been starting for the Attack, didn&acirc;&euro;&trade;t even dress Friday. Owen Sound&acirc;&euro;&trade;s coach, Mark Reeds, has juggled his three goalies all playoffs. He was named OHL Coach of the Year in April.</p>
